Proseries Led: Agriculture Market And Leds

byadmin

In order for swine and poultry production facilities to take advantage of energy-efficient LED lighting technology, they need a higher-quality agricultural LED luminaire that stands up to the rigors of their environments and power washing, yet are easy to install and maintain. Today’s producers recognize that energy-efficient LED lighting distribution is more even than fluorescent lighting and the color is a brighter white that is more user friendly in a barn environment. What’s more, LED technology generates more light with less heat, requiring less air conditioning. It means a reduction in the producer’s utility bill and its carbon footprint. Most utility companies also recognize the positive effects of energy-efficient lighting with rebates that financially support the transition to agricultural LED lights.

After retrofitting his 2,500-head swine production facility at Woodville Pork, Waseca, Minn., with the ProSeries LED Upgrade, Co-owner Chris Selthun raves about the time-savings. “We used to have to make a trip every week to buy CFLs or incandescent replacement lamps and deal with changing them out. Our 3,000-psi pressure washer is proof that the LED luminaire lives up to the product’s claim. In fact, when we added a new cold storage facility, there was no question about installing the ProSeries LED Luminaire. Plus, we figured with the rebate we’d see a three-year return on investment.”
